What an epic night with Chris Lake at Mission Ballroom on April 26, 2024 in Denver, CO. Supporting Chris was Joshwa b2b Noizu, Cole Knight & Londen Summers.
Londen Summers
Raised in Winter Park, FL, Londen took up violin in the 1st grade. Discovering an ability to convey her abundant energy & love for expression, this early exposure to music molded a lifelong passion. In 2015, she relocated to Denver, CO, where she became infatuated with the local electronic scene community & began pursuing music production.
Now LA-based, her influences range from intricate sound design acts like ODESZA, Jamie Jones & Kyle Watson. Artists that evoke emotion and electricity from listeners. She has proved her part on Noizu’s label, Techne, with her song “Selectress.” Her sound is defined by invigorating synths and attention to basslines.

Cole Knight
Knight grew up in a small rural town about three hours south of Chicago, in a household where music almost never played. But despite this, she was drawn to music anyway, always seeking it out. Clamouring to use iTunes whenever she could and making mix CDs for her friends. Besides a brief stint learning piano and a longer, more dedicated stint learning guitar, Knight’s exposure to music up until leaving high school was minimal. It all changed with an instrumental trip to Lollapalooza festival in Chicago. Where she danced, connected with people in the industry and, in her own words, “discovered a new world.”
As the Covid-19 pandemic took its hold, Knight moved to Tulum. One of the only places where the music was still playing and the dancers were still dancing. Seeing artists like Ariel Vromen, Solomun and Peggy Gou play on the beach, and in the jungle, tapped Knight into a sound and a vibe she hadn’t experienced before. It spoke to her soul, she says. She knew that this was the music she was meant to play.
Cole Knight’s smart, melodic selections have now seen her invited to share a bill with the likes of Diplo and DJ Tennis in Las Vegas, Damian Lazarus and Swedish House Mafia at a Coachella after party for Spotify and warming up for Black Coffee at Zamna in Tulum. She’s also been lighting up the dance floor at Sound, one of LA’s best clubs. This summer, she’ll relocate to Europe for the season, spending her downtime in the studio and playing shows in Ibiza, at WECANDANCE, Voodoo Village Belgium and Burning Man.

Joshwa b2b Noizu
Noizu
Los Angeles based Noizu is quickly climbing through the ranks of house music. Making his debut on the Chris Lake and Skrillex curated ‘HOWSLA’ in 2017 with “Lasers” before catching the eyes and ears of French label boss Tchami. His follow up release saw the ‘Jungle EP’, an instant live anthem supported by Diplo, Oliver Heldens, A-Trak, Jauz, Malaa and more.
Although 2020 did not pan out exactly like Noizu had anticipated, it still turned out to be an incredibly successful year. Due to the lack of touring, Noizu dove into the studio to hammer out tunes that kept his previous momentum going. Starting off the year with the fun and uplifting track, “Elevate”, it quickly set the pace for what the rest of the year would bring. “Summer 91”, a dance anthem driven by funky keys and a dancey bassline, cannonballed onto the scene with a wave of excitement.
Riding off the coattails of “Summer 91”, Noizu quickly released a club banger, “Hands Up” with the legendary Fast Eddie and Martin Ikin on Black Book Records; the song shot to #1 on the Beatport Tech House charts. During this time, “Summer 91” continued to gain praise and recognition, including 700 radio plays worldwide and over 40 BBC Radio 1 spins. Noizu knew he was onto something great when the track caught the ears of Major A&Rs around the globe and ultimately led to him signing with major RCA/Sony.
